Warped view of LJ's performance thus far.

I havent seen anything in writing quite like this. Someone wrote in to S.I. and asked Ryan Houston, Special to SI.com, a fantasy question:

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/200...bag/index.html

"
After seeing what happened during Week 1, would it be crazy for me to start Priest Holmes and Larry Johnson at the same time? I have read that they will alternate series' 2 to 1. I have Steven Jackson, Fred Taylor, Brandon Jacobs, and Lamar Gordon also. Does this seem like a bad idea?
-- Paul

"On our radio show we received calls about this all day. Everyone is very concerned what kind of impact Larry Johnson is going to make on Priest Holmes' numbers this season. I really didn't see anything that made me feel Larry Johnson is an every-week starter. Sure he had two TDs but how often is Larry Johnson going to turn nine carries into 110 yards and two TDs? Holmes was the focal point of the offense and will be as long as he can stay healthy."



Excuse me, but wouldnt THAT (getting 110 and 2TD's on 9 carries) be enough to show that a guy just MIGHT be decent enough to be an every week starter?? Who is this clown?

Priest is really going to be motivated by all this. I can't wait to see him really bust out in one game.

Priest has never had breakaway speed. LJ does.

Got that? Do I need to say it again?

Priest has never had breakaway speed. LJ does.

For the third time on the thread, I will say that the subject here is about FANTASY fucking football. It's not about whether Holmes or Johnson is a better runningback than the other. It's about which one will touch the ball more often, and as long as Priest is the starter -- which he is -- he's going to touch the ball.

That doesn't mean Larry sucks. That doesn't mean Larry won't score. That doesn't mean Larry won't make amazing plays. All it means is that Priest is the starter and will have more opportunities.

Now quit wasting my time with silly bullshit.
I never said anything about Priest's age, who was the starter, or who was the better running back. It appeared to me that you asserted with certainty that Holmes would have scored a TD on the same play that LJ did. I simply stated that I wasn't so sure. History would tend to disagree with you, as well.

Did you or did you not contend that? That is the only thing I tried to say. And that is specifically what I questioned. All that other stuff you're saying that I'm ignoring is a bunch of hooey because I didn't say you said any of that stuff.

You should be taken out and beaten for talking about injuries in a serious way like this. That so much bad mojo I can't even begin to think about it...

Skip, while I somewhat agree with your position, you should get your facts straight. Priest made it through 2003. He didn't make it through 2002 or 2004.

I hope so. I love Priest. There's nothing I'd love to see more. With both backs kicking butt, we're going to win a lot of football games.

Read the original post.

This is a guy asking a "fantasy expert" if he'd be crazy to start both Priest and LJ ahead of guys like Steven Jackson, Brandon Jacobs and Lamar Gordon.

Easy on the mojo there. Surely you have met several charming people in your life.

I see that now. If it had been in the header on the front page, I wouldn't be here. I hate fantasy football.

My posts pertained to the relative merits of the two backs. As were the posts of the people I was discussing it with. They had nothing to do with fantasy football.

FFL aside. I think LJ is the better pure runner as far as speed and power are concerned. However, I think Priest is the better back to base our offensive scheme on with his patience, slashing, cutbacks, screens, etc. All of that sets upt the rest of the offense.
